I wonder if there are any other examples of this happening ... not just in the NBA but the big four as well? The 1994 Phillies had alternate blue hats that were dropped because they were "unlucky" The 1997 Jaguars changed the look of the jersey numbers between the end of the preseason and the start of the season because of complaints from the announcers 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Satomiblood 872 Posted August 1, 2019 1 hour ago, BShaw20 said: The Magic have this new “Magic Above All” theme...could it be a sign of a rebrand? I feel like they've been in the same boat with the Suns in that they had two solid looks (inaugural and second generation), but have failed to recapture the charm of their older sets. The Magic did offset some of this by bringing back the pin stripes as well as a black jersey, but it's nowhere near as good as their first two sets. Like the Suns, I've always felt that they could mix elements from their early uniform histories to achieve a solid overall look. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Froob 1,397 Posted August 1, 2019 Why does Orlando need to be a primary black team? As if there aren’t enough? Also, should bring stars back on the uniforms. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Call me a homer...but I trust Conrad here. Quote The Sixers will be one of 12 teams wearing a throwback uniform this season, something the NBA allows a team to do once every five seasons I think the writer mixed up NBA and NFL rules. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UnclearInitial 1,619 Posted August 1, 2019 I don’t think these are bad per se, but the Sixers have so many better options to throw back to that these are a bit underwhelming. Does the Hardwood Classics logo always feature the old font? I’m not sure how to feel about changing the colors of the logo but keeping the font the same, especially if the NBA logo on the back has the new font Missed opportunity not to use one of my favourite basketball uniforms of all time 20 years after they were introduced 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pelicanfan 1,269 Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) I always felt like earned jerseys should be one design for each team and can only be used when teams make the playoffs. Like maybe white and gold jerseys. And only come on sale for a team when they make the playoffs. It’s hard to explain. But it’s like the old earned jerseys system but only one design being used forever so Nike doesn’t have to come up with new designs for 16 teams every year.

Yay for less uniforms but thats just another shot in the knee for pistons fans hoping for the chance of a new red uniform. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2001 they changed templates to the wide shoulders and the new blue jerseys didn’t have arm trim.

It wouldn’t be directly during the playoffs. But the season after. Just like the old earned jerseys. So by then Nike would know what team made the playoffs and the production? And can’t they use the same design template ready to use each year? Sry I’m stupid 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
